The IPSN has developed two new videos, one providing an overview of the network and the other which explains a key IPSN resource- the Plant Health Checker.

The International Plant Sentinel Network (IPSN) is coordinated by BGCI and facilitates collaboration between botanic garden & arboreta and plant protection organisations to provide an early warning system of new and emerging pest and pathogen risks.

The IPSN has released two new videos to increase engagement and awareness of the network and understanding of one of our key resources.

The main video provides an overview of the network and the work we do, and provides an insight from some of our key partners.

The Plant Health Checker video explains this important tool developed by the IPSN. The videos were developed in collaboration with Fera Science, Yorkshire Arboretum, Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, Auckland Botanical Gardens and Wakewood.

Both of these videos are now available on the IPSN website and can be watched below:
